Caillou (a French-Canadian name, pronounced ky-you) is a young, inquisitive preschool boy whose experiences of preschool and home life are communicated delightfully in bright and bold colour in this simple storybook for preschoolers.
Caillou wakes early one morning with the idea that he will surprise his family by making breakfast for them! He pours the juice, carefully puts cereal into the bowls and even feeds Gilbert the cat, ready for his parents to wake up. Calliou is sure his plan will work and his parents are definitely surprised!
